Dear DA Team,

I am writing regarding serious issues I have encountered after performing a clean installation of the system, updates, and installing DirectAdmin along with the associated packages. Unfortunately, the server does not function properly after these operations.

The most concerning problems are:

  1. Nginx fails to start properly:
    • After removing all vhosts, the Nginx server works.
    • However, when creating any vhost, an error occurs due to invalid Nginx configuration syntax, which prevents it from starting.
  2. Incorrect PHP versions:
    • A vhost is configured to use PHP 8.3, even though the location configuration files only include settings for PHP 8.2. This indicates inconsistencies or errors in the generated configurations.
These issues are not only frustrating but also significantly impact my work efficiency. I have a few questions that I hope will help resolve these problems quickly:

  1. Do you monitor and thoroughly test the changes introduced in updates to ensure they are stable and compatible with server configurations?
  2. Are there plans to implement fixes or higher testing standards to prevent such issues in the future?
  3. How can I resolve the above issues? I would appreciate detailed instructions on fixing the PHP configuration and starting Nginx with vhosts.
I hope for a prompt response and specific support to address these problems. The current situation requires urgent action.

I dont use any custom in httpd conf!

nginx: [emerg] location "/" is outside location "^()(/.*)?$" in /usr/local/directadmin/data/users/admin/nginx.conf:88

Hello,

Is this a custom code added by you? Or is it a template for WordPress selected in DirectAdmin?

I see the block:

Code: 
location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$args ;
}

is added twice per a server {} section. I doubt it is natively. Even if you write you don't use custom in httpd.conf. What do you see when run the following code?

Code: 
ls -al /usr/local/directadmin/data/templates/custom/

p.s. You might try and downgrade DirectAdmin to a stable release, if everything is really native no single custom template exists on the server.
